Howdy folks,

I've had a hard last few weeks/months with trying to date new people and kind of getting just absolutely exhausted by how many times people have shown themselves to not just be good/genuine people. I went through a hard patch with my job for a bit, but started hitting the gym a good bit now and trying to almost find myself again through activities.....get back to trying/learning new things. Im trying to make moves by working on a business idea I had recently and trying to build a spank bench I designed months ago as well. :)

One thing I've always been a bit interested in (and heard interest in from partners) is ropes/shibari. I can tie a great handcuff knot but part of me would love to learn how to do a harness, shibari or possibly become a rigger essentially.

Im based in the southeast US. Would anyone know of a site I can check to verify where I could maybe attend a course to learn, or possibly go into certain subjects concerning BDSM? I have no one to practice things like shibari with as of right now and would love to learn a bit.

Could be other BDSM events as well possibly.
